Certified Technical Coordinator (ACTC)
v10.5

is intended for Mac OS X technical coordinators and entry-level system administrators
tasked with maintaining a modest network of computers using Mac OS X Server.

and the core functionality and use of Mac OS X Server, the learning curve
is correspondingly longer and more intensive than that for the Apple Certified
Support Professional (ACSP) certification, which addresses solely Mac OS X
client support.
